The second and final stage of the redevelopment, the new East Building was officially opened on 30 August 2018. The expansion has not only transformed Adelaide’s skyline with two new buildings, but boosted plenary capacity to 3,500 and the Centre’s overall footprint to 20,000sqm of multi-purpose space, enabling the venue to not only host much larger events, but also a number of smaller events simultaneously.

The opening of the redeveloped Adelaide Oval has seen it once again sit proudly within a revitalised riverbank and parklands precinct and within close walking distance along the Market to Riverbank from Franklin Apartments.

I have stayed at this property for the Tour Down Under twice now - it is a great location and handy to all festival activities. The units are well maintained with good facilities. I particularly like having a washing machine for the duration of the tour as it makes travelling, cycling and management of all much easier.

Our one bedroom apartment was perfect for our short stay in Adelaide. Well equipped and serviced daily so always had plenty of everything. Plenty of space for the two of us. Staff were very helpful and always there when we needed them. Centrally placed so could easily reach the amazing Central Markets( a msut go destination for food and atmosphere) and the main city sites. Made use of the free tram stop just around the corner.

Couldn't be better placed for my needs. As an intermittent long term guest for the last 6 months, I keep coming back because it is reasonably priced, has everything I need in a basic apartment and the staff are always extremely attentive and friendly and keen for a chat. I would certainly recommend consideration to be given to Franklins.
